1676293 - Remove the pref to disable "Chrome fling physics" on Android

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Core :: Panning and Zooming, task)

Description

[Botond Ballo [:botond]]

In bug 1448439 and related bugs, we overhauled the fling physics used on Android to be more like the fling physics used by Chrome. We added the pref apz.android.chrome_fling_physics.enabled to control getting the new physics (true) vs. the old one (false).

The pref's default value has been true for over two years now, and the old physics implementation has basically been un-maintained.

In this bug, I would like to remove the old fling physics code and remove the pref.

This was an old alternative fling implementation that could be opted
into with the pref apz.android.chrome_fling_physics.enabled=fase.
The pref is also removed.
